    I rarely give five stars but our Christmas eve dinner at Miro's was truly superb. The lamb meat balls, escargot and three different fish entrees made every discerning one of us very happy. If I could change one thing it would be the somewhat weak wine list that bore little resemblance to what the website promised, but the total experience ranks it at the top of Palm Springs restaurants.

    Great food and service. Chef Susan is there to check on all the tables to make sure the customers are enjoying. NY strip steak absolutely the best; branzino fabulous, pork shoulder very tasty but a little fatty. Must get the cheddar biscuits. Just a fun place with a pleasant vibe.
